Play Garden for Yuecheng Kindergarten is a rooftop play landscape in Chaoyang District, Beijing, China. The play area sits on the roof of a new kindergarten building that wraps around a preserved historic courtyard and its ancient trees. Raising the play space allowed open room to run and climb on a very tight site. The roof is finished with a soft plastic surface in color bands that change from rich red at the base to soft cream at the peaks, showing changes in elevation. Hills, circular light wells and a looping tricycle track support active play and discovery.
